- 26. Key Takeaways totalgreenrecycling.com.au 1. Local infrastructure development is critical for a sustainable circular economy long term. 2. WA is under represented in NTCRS funding, We would like to work with the State and local governments to attract a better deal for WA. 3. Local Governments must support local industry and ensure that E-waste collected in WA is recycled in WA, and not shipped over east. Some LGA’s are doing a good job, but others have plenty of room for improvement. 4. Supporting local processing infrastructure results in innovation and job creation, and without it the circular economy cannot exist.
